The vendor name in configuration tuples is more or less irrelevant these

operating systems that support PCs, what is this meant to return?

  $ ./config.sub pc

or even

  $ ./config.sub x86_64-pc

LLVM is not part of the GNU project, nor does it abide with the rules
and conventions thereof.  We are under no obligation to contort
ourselves to match their expectations.
